Sens. Rubio and Rosen Reintroduce Hamas Sanctions Bill

Sens. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., reintroduced a bill to impose sanctions on foreign entities and governments that provide financial or material support to Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, or affiliates of the terrorist groups, Rubio’s office announced March 5. The proposed “Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad International Terrorism Support Prevention Act of 2024” was reintroduced to incorporate language tweaks and the addition of a Democratic co-lead, a Rubio spokesperson said. The House passed similar legislation in November (see 2311020030).
